Hello!! Question, any recommendations for someone’s first time in London? I can tell how much you love your city by the way you write about it :) like you I am very passionate about music, art and literature, and would love any suggestions to get acquainted with the wonderful city <3 your suggestions for museums, music venues, neighborhoods of interest, parks or anything relating would be very much appreciated!! Thank you!!

Go to Bloomsbury for bookshops, museums and literary history

Visit the Barbican if you like brutalist architecture and cinema, there are also musical performances there

The V&A in South Kensington is wonderful

Tate Modern and the Tate are both worth visiting

Hackney is a great place for dinner and wine I’ve heard

Brick Lane for vintage shopping

Hampstead Heath for a huge beautiful park and swimming ponds and a beautiful neighbourhood- also go to Keith Fawkes bookshop it’s one of my favourite secondhand bookshops in London. My friend used to work there and the owner Keith is allegedly the last living descendant of Guy Fawkes

The Women's Prize for Non-Fiction 2024 Longlist is here!

I'm sure that long time readers of my blog or followers of my Instagram will know that I have been following the Women's Prize for Fiction very closely for the last few years. I was really excited to discover that they were launching a sister prize celebrating non-fiction written by women (because it definitely tends to get lost in the very male-dominant sphere that is non-fiction). I am not a big non-fiction reader but as I get older, I have found myself becoming more interested in it. I think I'll always be a much bigger fiction reader but there are some genres within non-fiction that I am fascinated by, so it made sense for me to take a look at what the inaugural Women's Prize for Non-Fiction longlist had to offer.

The Women's Prize for Non-Fiction is open to non-fiction books written by women in English and published between 1st April 2023 and 31st March 2024. I believe it follows the same rules as the Fiction prize, in that books have to follow a narrative and that translated books are not eligible.

So, here are the 16 books on the first ever Women's Prize for Non-Fiction longlist!

Intervals by Marianne Brooker. Published by Fitzcarraldo Editions on 28th February 2024.

Thunderclap by Laura Cumming. Published by Chatto & Windus on 6th July 2023.

Shadows at Noon by Joya Chatterji. Published by Bodley Head on 13th July 2023.

Wifedom: Mrs Orwell's Invisible Life by Anna Funder. Published by Viking on 17th August 2023.

Matrescence by Lucy Jones. Published by Allen Lane on 22nd June 2023.

How To Say Babylon by Safiya Sinclair. Published by 4th Estate on 3rd October 2023.

Some People Need Killing by Patricia Evangelista. Published by Grove Press on 2nd November 2023.

Code Dependent: Living in the Shadow of AI by Madhumita Murgia. Published by Picador on 28th March 2024.

Eve: How the Female Body Drove 200 Million Years of Human Evolution by Cat Bohannon. Published by Hutchinson Heinemann on 12th October 2023.

The Britannias: An Island Quest by Alice Albinia. Published by Allen Lane on 19th October 2023.

All That She Carried: The Journey of Ashley's Sack, A Black Family Keepsake by Tiya Miles. Published by Profile Books on 13th July 2023.

The Dictionary People: The Unsung Heroes Who Created the Oxford English Dictionary by Sarah Ogilvie. Published by Chatto & Windus on 7th September 2023.

Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World by Naomi Klein. Published by Allen Lane on 12th September 2023.

Vulture Capitalism: Corporate Crimes, Backdoor Bailouts and the Death of Freedom by Grace Blakeley. Published by Bloomsbury on 14th March 2024.

A Flat Place by Noreen Masud. Published by Hamish Hamilton on 27th April 2023.

Young Queens: Three Renaissance Women and the Price of Power by Leah Redmond Chang. Published by Bloomsbury on 11th May 2023.

So, there's the longlist. There is a good mixture in terms of theme and I'm sure a lot of people will be excited about that. I'm afraid that for me, I'm really not very interested in many of them. I have copies of Eve and Some People Need Killing, so I'll be reading them. I am also interested in Doppelganger and Wifedom but they're both very expensive in all formats at the moment, so I'll see if I can get library copies. However, almost all of the others just aren't speaking to me!

The shortlist will be announced on 27th March and the winner will be announced on 13th June, which is the same date as the winner of the Fiction Prize. So, I imagine the award ceremony will be a very big celebration of women's writing, which is always an exciting event.

What do you think of the longlist? Will you be reading any? Have you read any? Should I pick up any that I don't think I'm interested in? Let me know!

The meanwhile started at Camden Town Station and ended at Liverpool Street. I remember getting the train to the Stratford Centre, one night at the end of May, and being mystified by how eastward we were heading. When we stumbled through the 9-to-5-workers and the pub goers out of Stratford Station, Annie and I looked at each other and came to the same realisation: “This London doesn’t belong”. It was probably the other way around, but to live there you must think of the city as your creation. This way, instead of being the smallest piece in a matryoshka world, the city expands as much or as far as you want it to. We had four northern stars: the BFI as the great divider of the Thames, the ponds at Hampstead Heath as the edges of summer, Brick Lane as our East End Camden and Bloomsbury as the little blue dot on the map, next to our accommodation.

The meanwhile was also a matter of time, the bit we held and the bit we saw in front of us. Metaphors of waiting rooms and manifestation practices were lost on us; we knew our moment was then, and the only thing we successfully manifested were black americanos and 10-pound lottery tickets to Hamilton. But we were keenly aware that what we did we did for narration, so that some version of us – a version that would’ve conquered the meanwhile and tamed it to the future – could give meaning to our reality. Just like geography, time was ours to morph. That is, ultimately, the meaning of the meanwhile: not a limbo, not a journey and not really an in-between. I was in London and my destination was New York, but my destination was London as well, another city that expanded further than Aldgate and further than the Tate. I despised thinking of Italy, of humid countryside and words that couldn’t express now, and I longed for warm hugs and community. I loved my friends deeply and at the same time couldn’t stand their deep knowledge of me, the fact that I wouldn’t be able to swipe my personality clean and start on a new slate. My magical thinking was only as powerful as my sense of novelty.

Lost London: Walking the Covent Garden Drainage Ditches

Part 3: The St Martin’s Parish Sewer

The last section of the walk along the drainage ditches of Covent Garden can begin with completing the fourth side of the Cock and Pye Ditch, by walking along the western end Shelton Street until the junction with Neal Street, then doubling back to Upper St Martin’s Lane. With this done, the walk then continues along St Martin’s Lane, following a noticeable downhill gradient as the route starts back towards the Thames.

With the sewer buried beneath the roads and buildings, and its course not well recorded, other sights make for more interest along this section. Off to the west of St Martins Lane is Cecil Court, a street of booksellers, many offering rare or unusual books; the oldest amongst these shops is Watkins Books, specialising in occult texts.

Further along St Martins Lane, this time to the east, is Brydges Place, possible the narrowest alley in London – it would definitely be difficult for two people to pass at its tightest point.

The route then turns down William IV Street, then Adelaide Street, passing the sculpture A Conversation With Oscar Wilde (checking to see if his cigarette has been stolen again), before arriving at the Strand. It is reckoned that the sewer (or ditch as it may have been then) crossed the Strand somewhere near where Charing Cross station stands today, though no records survive saying exactly where.

The walk continues downhill, quickly taking in the top end of Villiers Street, then York Place (formerly Of Alley, a story featured in a past post), then Buckingham Street. This terminates at York Watergate, marking where the banks of the Thames used to be, and where the St Martin’s parish sewer would have emptied into the river. With the construction of the Victoria Embankment, the parish sewer was joined to the interceptor sewer, so much like the Bloomsbury Ditch, there is no visible outfall.

My guidebook suggested ending the walk at the nearby Cleopatra’s Needle – the ancient Egyptian obelisk that actually bears the cartouches of Thutmose III and Ramses II. Some say that the exact geographical centre of London is a bench just besides the obelisk – certainly a quieter (and perhaps more atmospheric) location than the main rival for the title just beside Trafalgar Square…

My 10 Favorite Plays I Read in 2022

Stage Kiss by Sarah Ruhl (2011)

“Art imitates Life. Life imitates Art. When two actors with a history are thrown together as romantic leads in a forgotten 1930s melodrama, they quickly lose touch with reality as the story onstage follows them offstage.” (Concord Theatricals)

Trifles by Susan Glaspell (1916)

“In a small Iowa farmhouse, surly and reclusive farmer John Wright was found murdered. His apathetic wife Minnie is the prime and only suspect, and sitting in jail for the crime. Now, a small group of people enter the home, looking for the clues that would explain why a woman would suddenly strangle her husband in the night. While County Attorney Henderson, Sheriff Peters, and neighbor Mr. Hale roam the house looking for clues, the women (Mrs. Peters and Mrs. Hale) examine the “trifles” of a country kitchen, such as frozen jars of preserves and a poorly sewn quilt. But as the women look closer at Minnie’s world, they make a bone-chilling discovery. Inspired by a true story, Susan Glaspell’s Trifles is a seminal play of early 20th-century American theatre and helped define American realism as we know it.” (StageAgent)

Peerless by Jiehae Park (2017)

“Asian-American twins M and L have given up everything to get into The College. So when D, a one-sixteenth Native American classmate, gets “their” spot instead, they figure they’ve got only one option: kill him. A darkly comedic take on Shakespeare’s Macbeth about the very ambitious and the cut-throat world of high school during college admissions.” (Concord Theatricals)

Blue Stockings by Jessica Swale (2013)

“1896. Girton College, Cambridge, the first college in Britain to admit women. ...In Jessica Swale's debut play, Blue Stockings, Tess Moffat and her fellow first years are determined to win the right to graduate. But little do they anticipate the hurdles in their way: the distractions of love, the cruelty of the class divide or the strength of the opposition, who will do anything to stop them. The play follows them over one tumultuous academic year, in their fight to change the future of education.” (Nick Hern Books)

Harvest by Manjula Padmanabhan (1998)

“A dark satire, Harvest tells the story of an impoverished family and the Faustian contract they enter into with a shadowy international corporation: fabulous wealth in exchange for the organs of one of its members. As Ginni, the glamorous American woman who hopes to receive the organs, invades their one-room home via an interactive video device, the play lays bare the transactional nature of human relationships–even the most intimate ones.” (Hachette India)

Nell Gwynn by Jessica Swale (2016)

“London, 1660. King Charles II has exploded onto the scene with a love of all things loud, extravagant and sexy. And at Drury Lane, a young Nell Gwynn is causing stirrings amongst the theatregoers. Nell Gwynn charts the rise of an unlikely heroine, from her roots in Coal Yard Alley to her success as Britain's most celebrated actress, and her hard-won place in the heart of the King. But at a time when women are second-class citizens, can her charm and spirit protect her from the dangers of the Court?” (Nick Hern Books)

How I Learned to Drive by Paula Vogel (1997)

“A wildly funny, surprising and devastating tale of survival as seen through the lens of a troubling relationship between a young girl and an older man. HOW I LEARNED TO DRIVE is the story of a woman who learns the rules of the road and life from behind the wheel.” (Concord Theatricals)

Tipping the Velvet by Laura Wade (2015), adapted from the novel by Sarah Waters

“It's 1887 and Nancy Astley sits in the audience at her local music hall: she doesn't know it yet, but the next act on the bill will change her life. Tonight is the night she'll fall in love… with the thrill of the stage and with Kitty Butler, a girl who wears trousers. Giddy with desire and hungry for experience, Nancy follows Kitty to London where unimaginable adventures await.” (Bloomsbury)

King Charles III by Mike Bartlett (2014)

Written in the style and structure of a Shakespeare play, King Charles III is a future history play which follows Charles’ ascent to the throne. “Prince Charles has waited his entire life to ascend to the British throne. But after the Queen’s death, he immediately finds himself wrestling his conscience over a bill to sign into law. With the future of the monarchy under threat, protests on the streets, and his family in disarray, Charles must grapple with his own identity and purpose, to decide whether, in the twenty-first century, the British crown still has any real power.” (PBS)

In the Other Room, Or the Vibrator Play by Sarah Ruhl (2009)

“Set in the 1880s at the dawn of the age of electricity and based on the bizarre historical fact that doctors used vibrators to treat 'hysterical' women (and some men), the play centers on a doctor and his wife and how his new therapy affects their entire household.” (Concord Theatricals)

Hi S! Update on Kenya boy - we’ve kept up talking and he’s back in the UK for a few days this next week! Flying visit but he has asked to hang out so eeeek. Any cute London date recommendations for something chill are welcome 🧡🧡

Ah so cute!

My favorite London dates are going to a museum and then having a neighborhood wander. The BM is good for this, visit the museum and then go to the London Review of Books, have a wander around Bloomsbury, maybe over to exmouth market or Lamb's Conduit street. Actually wait there's an awesome bar over there! WC Bloomsbury, in a converted old loo, super intimate and romantic.

The Sir John Soane museum is also super interesting and especially good for their after dark events. And the V&A, then you can head down into Chelsea.

In non-museum ideas, crazy golf is always fun, food crawl in China town (try Rasa Sayang for Malaysian, and def get pandan cake from the bakery on dean street), shopping along brick lane (DF is solid for tacos, stop into Libreria the bookshop), south bank (go to the food market behind the South Bank Center for duck burgers from Frenchie, could pop into the Tate modern)... If none of those sound good pop back for more and I'll see what I can do!

#correspondence #pals #london #london stuff #no pressure but tell me everything. hope you have a great time!
